Submitted on Mon, 01/24/2011 - 20:55

Third solo album from this Super Furry Animals frontman. Released in conjunction with Rhys' new art installation, also called "Hotel Shampoo" and currently showing at Chapter Arts in Cardiff, Wales. Hotel Shampoo is inspired by, and takes its title from, Gruff's extensive collection of mini shampoo bottles and complimentary hotel products acquired whilst touring the world. "Having never kept a journal these items have become like diary entries, triggering memories of all those buildings and random people I've met and inspiring songs on the album."

Features song duet with Sarah Assbring of El Perro Del Mar on 'Space Dust #2'.
